i dunno. i've always kinda thought as my toys as being like a buddy. after a rad session on the dirtbike i pat it on the seat and say "nice job dude!". i use to do the same to my car after autocrossing and stuff.

or if i just rammed it into a tree i might rub it on the tank and say sorry

my family never really gave our toys/vehicles names though... other than what they were. no real names. we had "the comet" which was a 64 super cyclone mercury comet. the "Mr. Build" which was an old work truck my dad bought that the previous owner put a mr. build decal on the door. "Ol' Blue" is a blue 86 chevy pickup that i bought a few years back to haul bikes around in. one of my dirtbikes is called "the KDX" and the other is "the DR".... etc.
